By virtue of the operator Hermite polynomial method and the technique of integration within the ordered product of operators we derive a new kind of special function, which is closely related to one- and two-variable Hermite polynomials. Its application in deriving the normalization for some quantum optical states is presented.
By virtue of the operator Hermite polynomial method [Fan H Y and Zhan D H 2014 Chin. Phys. B 23 060301] we find a new special function which is useful in quantum optics theory, whose expansion involves both power-series and Hermite polynomials, i.e., By virtue of the operator Hermite polynomial method and the technique of integration within ordered product of operators (IWOP) we derive its generating function. The circumstance in which this new special function appears and is applicable is considered.
Special polynomials (e.g. Hermite polynomials) are very important for the development of physics and mathematics. As a further extension of ordinary Hermite polynomials, we introduce new generalized Hermite polynomials with three variables and find their generating functions using the operator ordering method in quantum optics. Also, some new operator identities and integral formulas are obtained. As applications, the normalization, Wigner functions and evolutions for certain quantum states are analytically presented. These analytical results can provide conveniences for numerically studying the properties and applications of such quantum states.
